    Abstract: An information processing system and method for realizing efficient processing using an enabling key block (EKB) using a categorized tree structure. An EKB composed of encrypting data for encrypting an upper-order key by using a lower-order key on a selection path of a key tree having sub-trees managed by a category entity is created and provided to a device. When a request to create an EKB is made, a structure for creating a route key by itself or a structure for requesting a key distribution center to create a route key is selectively executed. Further a structure for requesting a category entity to create a sub-EKB when the EKB distribution center creates an EKB is provided, and therefore the EKB creation and management are made efficient.

    Abstract translation: 一种使用使用分类树结构的启用密钥块(EKB)实现高效处理的信息处理系统和方法。 创建由用于通过使用具有由分类实体管理的子树的密钥树的选择路径上的低位密钥来加密上位密钥的加密数据构成的EKB,并将其提供给设备。 当创建EKB的请求被创建时,选择性地执行用于创建路由密钥本身的结构或者用于请求密钥分发中心创建路由密钥的结构。 此外,提供了用于在EKB分发中心创建EKB时请求类别实体创建子EKB的结构,因此EKB创建和管理是高效的。
